Abstract

In order to achieve the goal of good health and well-being in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the government has actively promoted the concept of sports and fitness. People expect the government could effectively build leisure facilities and sports centers that can provide high-quality services and activities. The purpose of this research is to establish a systematic model to help the government improve the quality of decision making and integrate various methods to expand the evaluation of site selection more objectively. This paper develops a hybrid MCDM model based on AHP, entropy and gray relational analysis methods to realize the location-selection process of sports centers. In this paper, a hybrid MCDM model was developed to realize the location-selection process of a sports center. Three perspectives and six major factors (including the 16 criteria) for the sports center location selection are presented. Among them, geographical conditions are the most important perspective, surrounding environment is the most important factor and the second most important factor is future development. The results of this research will provide reference for relevant government departments.
